Last Sunday when i started my car, I had a big cross warning on the display saying Contact dealer, then ABS, then ESP, then Engine lights and back to Contact Dealer. The fuel guage also appeared to be dead?
The car appeared to run OK so I thought I'd take it to dealer Monday, but I drove it to the shop. It stalled and would not start with the same message showing,(I guess the same would have occurred Monday anyway).
Roadside service (NRMA) said as it's a computer problem, we'll have to tow it to the dealer, to which I agreed.
They spent some time on it and asked if I had any fuel in it. I said yes, 1/3- 1/4 tank last time I looked but I do recall my guage showing nothing (not even a small rise). They eventually said they had to drop the fuel tank (and exhaust and cross memeber) to check and discovered there was no fuel in the tank!!
I said this was impossible but accepted what they showed me and thought was it possible to be syphoned??
I had no low fuel warning at any time and I have driven the car for 2 years and am familiar with it's sounds. I calculated it has travelled 380km since fill up, which is low compared to my norm of about 450.
They want to charge me for the time as it is not a warranty issue....
Any thoughts? :cry:
